Nailed It or Failed It Law Firms and Christmas Gifts
15 Jan, 20255 minutes๐ How good is your law firm at holiday gift-giving? ๐
The festive season may be behind us, but it's never too late to reflect on how companies handled their gift-giving. According to Blackhawk Network, 46% of people think companies are bad gift-givers. So, did your law firm make the holidays brighter with thoughtful and personal gifts, or were there... questionable choices?
Was there a much-dreaded Secret Santa policy? A well-timed bonus? Or branded merchandise you werenโt sure what to do with?
Some firms get it right, while others... well, they might need to rethink their approach next year!
Here are some memorable examples of gift-giving gone wrong from years past:
๐ A supermarket gifting staff a "Christmas hamper" with toilet paper, rice, and canned tuna. Umโฆ thanks?!
๐ An American clothing company offering employees a 10% discount on their own products as a โholiday bonus.โ
๐ A budget airline handing out Christmas crackers with cheap toys, a paper hat, and a voucher for a discounted flight.
And who could forget the infamous Secret Santa disasters? Those joke gifts you wish you could return immediately or just pretend never existed.
But not every company gets it wrong. Some go the extra mile with meaningful bonuses, thoughtful gifts, or charitable donations that truly make employees feel valued and appreciated.
So now that the season is over, letโs hear it:
๐ Whatโs the worst holiday gift a company has ever given you?
๐ Whatโs the best gift or gesture that made your holidays brighter?
๐ And what would you love to see from your law firm next year?
